Miguel Olivo's more of a counter-puncher

White Sox Royals Fight (via fish1410)
Watch as former Padre, Miguel Olivo, charges the mound after getting hit with the pitch, and then sorta puts his dukes up and skips along, waiting for somebody to spare him from having to actually throw a punch. If you're gonna hit the guy, then hit the guy.
On the replay, you see A.J. Pierzynski doing his catcher duty by trying to grab Olivo from behind, only to get clocked. I guess Olivo just had to really warm up to the idea before actually hitting somebody.

Two great things here
Great job by the home plate ump letting the guy throw three straight pitches at Olivo’s chin.
And great porn star/WWE hair style on Pierzynski.

Olivo es un idioto,
Looks like he changed his mind about charging the mound when he was halfway there.
Chan Ho YARD!
nah
he hesitated, and then he put his arms like he was ready to “fight.” for once i’d like to see someone charge it all the way. not hesitate and wait for someone to hold them back, a la derek lee.
"i kinda feel like nevin and klesko were some fling we (the padres) had in the past and now realize were a bad idea and are embarrassed about."
"well i can hit your face. shut the eff up furcal."
So good.
"Do you ever think, when you're all alone, all that we can be, where this thing can go? Am I crazy or falling in love? Is it really just another crush? Do you catch a breath, when I look at you? Are you holding back, like the way I do?
Cause I'm tryin, tryin to walk away, but I know this crush ain't goin away, goin away."
I'd punch AJ too
even if he’s walking down the street near a preschool, I’d go out of my way to sock him.
AJ Smith?

I couldn't agree more. The guy is a total A.

Olivo apparently went to the
Carmelo Anthony school of fighting...

Yes
The guy with the slow fastball was trying to hit you with the bases loaded. Apparently logic isn’t Miguel Olivo’s strong suit.
That’s up there with Pujols thinking Adam Eaton was trying to hit him with a curveball (hey, in both cases, the catcher was the guy who got clocked)
I don't have to always be right. I just have to always think I'm right.

Great moments in broadcasting
about 5:15 into this, the White Sox announcers describe their pitcher – who had just thrown three straight brushback/beanballs, as a ‘victim of circumstance’. It is a great example of announcers talking out of their butts just long enough that they start to believe their own farts are burps.
